Every Wednesday, I’ll bring you a list of ten things that I think you should know about. I’m excited for this. I often stumble across something interesting and will share it to Instagram, but it has no real place to live. Maybe it’s a new launch, a really great podcast episode . . . maybe it’s an independent designer, an artist, or a must-have shopping find. It will be a different mix every week. You can read last week’s installment here.
Admittedly, I’ve reached that point in the Charleston summer where I’ve all but given up on getting dressed. It somehow feels hotter with each passing day, and all I can think about is the return of layering. While this month’s edit includes plenty of pieces that could carry me through the remainder of the season, I couldn’t resist letting my anticipation for cooler weather get the best of me (hence the suede jackets in the middle of August.) Lately, I’ve felt incredibly inspired by Grace to embrace a little more texture, color, and pattern in the way I get dressed.
Every week on Instagram, I share the previous week’s best-selling products. You can always see those collections, saved here on my ShopMy Page. It’s fun to see what pieces resonate most with you. To build on our weekly best-sellers series, we wanted to introduce a styling element. Each Monday, I will choose three of the previous week’s favorite styles and show you how to wear them. Today, we are styling this chic Farm Rio lace top, this gorgeous black sateen dress, and these super cute mesh flats — the brand will surprise you!
How heavy is your mental load? (And how to lighten it.) Ruth Reichl’s cooking essentials. This month’s must-see films on Netflix. How to tell if you are trauma dumping. Do your emojis make you look old? How 20 well-read people make time for books. “The year I stopped fixing myself.” Reasons to have faith in the art world. What fashion execs are reading this summer. Teenagers and tradwifery. How to make the famed Palm Springs Date Shake. Plus the usual mash-up of recipes, home tours, shopping links, and more. Enjoy!
